Versuri Translucent Soul
I get a call from Vance he's an old friend
He's got some you-won't-believe-story to share
He's the place that I go when I need someone who
knows me
He brings the smile of a billionaire
And I laugh when he pretends he's a white guy
'Cause he knows how bad I fail playing black
He says, If even you could, I don't advise that
you should
'Cause once you go there you might not want to
turn back
(chorus)
There isn't a thing
in this God-all-mighty world that I wouldn't do
to help him outta trouble
Seein' as how we're friends and
that goes deeper than skin can go
to a translucent soul
Deeper than color will show
translucent soul
He says, Now, you and I, I know we look a little
different,
but, I was raised middle class, same as you.
But, let's make it clear even on the way here,
I had to watch for blue lights in the rear view
He says, Last week, I was visiting L.A.,
walking the streets where the riots went down.
You got black killing black killing black killing
black,
while all the whites were sweating bullets across
town
(chorus)
He says, In L.A., they're whispering race war,
like it's something that has yet to begin
like they can plug up the cracks
in four hundred years of history
and prove that the melting pot's not broken
He says, In the event of some unlikely disaster,
we find ourselves armed, and face to face
I said, I'd turn around, I would protect your
ground
He said, I'd do the same thing for you at your
place
(chorus)
There isn't a thing
in this God-all-mighty world that he wouldn't do
to help me outta trouble . . .
Embrace what you have in common,
celebrate what sets you apart
It takes more than the color
that you find on a palate
to turn humanity into an art
into the form of an art
